throwing up their arms, falling down (as though) cut down, rolling backwards and forwards as though with their feet cut off, they were crying:

“Atikhippaṁ Bhagavā parinibbuto,
“Too quickly the Gracious One has attained Final Emancipation,

atikhippaṁ Sugato parinibbuto,
too quickly the Fortunate One has attained Final Emancipation,

atikhippaṁ Cakkhumā loke antarahito!” ti
too quickly the Visionary in the world has disappeared!”
